Julie Tippetts (born Julie Driscoll, London England) is an English singer and actress,
known for her 1960s versions of Bob Dylan's "This Wheel's on Fire", and Donovan's
"Season of the Witch", both with Brian Auger & The Trinity. Along with The Trinity,
she was featured prominently in the 1969 television special 33 1/3 Revolutions Per Monkee,
singing "I'm a Believer" in a soul style with Micky Dolenz. She and Auger had previously
worked in Steampacket, with Long John Baldry and Rod Stewart.
"This Wheel's on Fire" reached number five in the United Kingdom in June 1968.
With distortion, the imagery of the title and the group's dress and performance,
this version came to represent the psychedelic era in British music.
Driscoll recorded the song again in the early '90s with Adrian Edmondson as the
theme to the BBC comedy series Absolutely Fabulous, whose main characters are
throwbacks to that era.
